Since Vera will take the title from Sylvia (please God) and Arlovski will KO PDP (no prayer needed here) this is the next possible title fight, who wins?
Stand up seems equal although the have different muay thai styles IMO. Arlovski seems faster and more technical, whereas Vera seems more powerful and traditional muay thai.
On the ground, I suppose Vera has the upper hand as a brown belt/wrestling background, but Andrei is no slouch with his Master of Sport in Sambo/purple belt in BJJ.
I cant pick a winner, although I would die to see it. Who takes it?
When do you realistically think we will se this fight? End of spring 2007?
keep da hair Andre..no delilah
"Vera will have to submit AA because I don't think he has the power to KO him"
Vera is 8-0 wit 6 KO wins. AA has a very suspect chin. Vera is much more likely to KO AA than sub him.
"2 heavyweight title matches from now."
Sylvia vs Vera, Feb - Vera takes title
Vera vs Scrub, summer - Vera gets easy fight and wins
Vera vs Arlovski, fall - who wins? The fans..
DJStudd brings up what too many want to deny. Personally, I think Big Tim KO's Vera.
" Vera will have to submit AA because I don't think he has the power to KO him. "
That's a weird thing to say, given Vera's 6 KO wins and Andrei's 3 KO losses.
